Star Trek:Not so re-discovered

Yesterday I wrote about the new Star Trek show and showered it with praise. However, little did I know that the second episode was also out on the same day!
So today upon finding out about it, I watched the second episode.
The second episode begins right where the first on leaves us. Michael is caught by her Caption and is charges with treachery! She then is put in a cell within the ship. Meanwhile, all the Klingon troops arrive and their leader manages to convince all of them to attack.
Hence, we see the story take a tried and tested predictable route. With the Klingons overpowering the Star Fleet and destroying them like toys, We see Commander Michael escape her cell and rejoin her Captain at the bridge. Where they compose a plan to defeat the Klingons.
But, the story pulls of a plot twist towards the end which I will not spoil for you. The twist for me was the saving grace for the otherwise weak episode. Another weak link of the episode would be its CGI, which I praised before.

For me, the second episode was a letdown, as the tension was nowhere near what we saw in the first episode and the predictable storyline also did not help.

So I watched Baby Driver

I live in this country where it is nearly impossible for a moviegoer like me to get to watch all the latest blockbuster with the world! Either the movie does not get released or even worse it gets released and you have to go and waste your hard earned money on a trip to this small filthy room known as the movie theatre here to “enjoy” a movie. Well, I refuse to go through this ordeal, hence I have to wait for the movie to be available on the windows store (my preferred destination for movies and series) and enjoy the blockbusters the way they were meant to be enjoyed. So baby driver a return to the big screen for director Edgar Wright after his infamous exit from Ant-Man is one hell of a ride. Right from its first scene of our lead Baby listening to music while escaping from police. Shows what the movie is about. It is a heist drama wrapped in a musical. The concept is delightfully fresh and coupled with the excellent music track to the scenes, which are classic Edgar in style, m...

Someone is back in town!

The third season of Supergirl premiered this week. A series which I first started to watch because of the “hot chick” portraying SuperGirl, has now become of my favourites in Arrowverse. Last season ended with Kara losing the love of her life Mon-El. And this season begins with her questioning her decision! This is the most human that Supergirl is ever going to be. We see her shut off from the rest of the world. Kill Kara one might say and focus on chasing bank robbers and putting them behind bars. She even quits her job! The season premiere tries to be character heavy, something which I was not expecting it to be. The episode, however, introduces plot points for the rest of the season to build on. At first, we see the introduction of a new villain, whose name I have forgotten, a builder who plans to improve his business by levelling the place where the Supergirl statue is built. Next up we see an unknown ship into the ocean right at the end. And if that was not enough, anothe...
